Olsson set for U-Turn

Footballers are a funny breed when it comes to transfer gossip; when it's positive news and they're being linked with a bigger club than they are currently at they revel in it. But when the gossip dries up, U-turns are all the rage.

Take West Brom's Jonas Olsson for example.

ESPN are reporting that the defender is set to make a reversal on his future at the club.

The site reports that just months after the 29-year-old seemed likely to leave the Hawthorns in a move to Tottenham Hotspur for a reported £4million, he is now looking to sign a new deal at the club.

The departure of Harry Redknapp from Spurs seem to have been the catalyst of the breakdown in the move and now the Swedish international is in talks to sign a new deal with the Baggies according to ESPN.
